And my master made me swear (See Gill on Genesis 24:3). In ( Genesis 24:37-41 ) , the servant relates the oath his master made him take, and the charge he gave him, much in the same language as in ( Genesis 24:3-8 ) .
35
And the LORD hath blessed my master greatly, and he is become great: and he hath given him flocks, and herds, and silver, and gold, and men-servants, and maid-servants, and camels, and asses.
36
And Sarah, my master's wife, bore a son to my master when she was old: and to him hath he given all that he hath.
37
And my master made me swear, saying, Thou shalt not take a wife for my son of the daughters of the Canaanites, in whose land I dwell:
38
But thou shalt go to my father's house, and to my kindred, and take a wife for my son.
39
And I said to my master, It may be the woman will not follow me.
